Random crashes with NV53 Gateway laptop - Loud noise
I bought a Gateway NV53 refurbished laptop a couple years ago and got completely ripped off. Dead pixels in the middle of the screen in the shape of a bonzai tree -__-' bowl shape and random crashes/freezing all the time.
I found the sound it is doing on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RayMBLFYRtQ#t=16
I thought it could be a battery/heating issue so I bought two of those fans (https://i.imgur.com/OEvrExd.jpg)
Nothing helped, I could be watching a movie or simply browsing the internet using Google Chrome and it would crash randomly. I tried removing the battery and using the charger only and I got the same result!
Any help on what could be the cause of this?
